The disclosure relates to a device for blocking display and/or operating contexts comprising at least one operating apparatus for detecting user interactions, and an evaluation apparatus, configured to determine a current involvement value at least on the basis of the detected user interactions. The evaluation apparatus is configured to compare the current involvement value with at least one interruption threshold value and to establish a blocking state if the current involvement value reaches the interruption threshold value. The evaluation apparatus blocks or at least restricts at least one operating context of the at least one operating apparatus. The current involvement value is increased for each detected haptic user interaction, insofar as the current involvement value has not reached or exceeded the at least one interruption threshold value and the evaluation apparatus is configured to lower, continuously or in increments of time, the current involvement value by a recovery value.
